To Tell the Truth

This is something the Left seems unable or unwilling to do. 😠




Remember the scene in the movie "A Few Good Men" where Lt. Kaffee (Tom Cruise) was questioning Col. Jessup (Jack Nicholson) and Jessup finally roared back, "You can't handle the truth"!

Well, that scene is playing out all across the country since many people still can't handle the truth. I read post after post that have been shared by people I used to think I knew. There seems to be no end to the vitriol being spewed through their fingers onto the keyboard.

I wish I had the time and the patience to systematically correct them, you know, like grading a failing paper with a bright red pen. And yes, they are failing. Failing to see how out of touch with reality they are and actually believe what they are saying.

If we are being honest here, for many, particularly those in the swamp, it is more than that, deeper than that. It is a four-letter word. It is hate. They are so filled with hate that they can't find the good in anything that doesn't fit their myopic version of the truth. So they lie.

Which, of course, brings us to the topic of freedom of speech. Freedom of speech means you have a right to your opinion and to give voice to that opinion. You also have the right to be wrong and revel in your wrongness.

That doesn't make the rest of us any more likely to switch sides. It merely gives you the satisfaction of self expression.

Until next time, continue to express yourself. Folks will agree or not. It's your right and theirs.

Whose Side Are You On?

I'm glad you asked. I am on the side of America.

If you take a deeper look at it, there are many issues facing our country and many sides to take. 

One that is at the forefront of the world's attention is the war between Russia and Ukraine, and people are taking sides. Either you are for or against one of these countries, and nothing else is even possible. Ah, but it is. Personally, I support neither country and think the U.S. should keep its nose out of it. We, the American people do not want war. This is the third side and it is called neutrality. Ever heard of that? 

Those who insist that we continue to support Ukraine with billions of dollars of money and/or equipment, are just condoning more killing on both sides until there is no longer enough men to fight, or more importantly, work and raise families. I don't understand why anyone would want this. No, really I do and it all goes back to follow the money, and whose pockets get lined.

So, I am tired of seeing the blue and yellow flags with the words "I stand with Ukraine" everywhere I look. To say anything else seems to suggest that one aligns with Russia. I don't. However, when trying to negotiate a peace agreement, one must have both parties at the table. The Ukrainian president did not make a good showing, arriving at the White House (by invitation) wearing attire unbecoming of a president. He then reneged on already agreed-upon terms, refused to sign and demanded more money/support...whatever.

It is very telling that the only time the democratic members of congress clapped during President Trump's address was when he talked about the war and how many billions in aid had been given by the previous administration) One member, also known as “Pocahontas”, clapped even harder when he called her out. What does that say about the democratic state of mind?

Whose side are you on and why?

Until next time, take care and stay safe.

Just So You Know

The far left media will lie and tell you that Americans are against all the things that President Trump is doing. That would be the left doing what they do best.

Now, how about a look at some numbers gathered from a CBS News poll following President Trump’s speech Tuesday night. This tells a completely different story.

• 76% approved of Trump’s speech
• 63% said Trump spent time on issues they care about
• 74% said his speech was presidential
• 71% said it was inspiring
• 62% said it was unifying
• 77% approve of DOGE
• 77% approve of immigration and border policies
• 73% approve of his plans for ending the Ukraine/Russia war
• 65% approve of tariffs
• 76% approved of the removal of democrat, Al Green

Only 51% of those polled self-identified as republicans, yet 76% approved.

I believe this covers it pretty well. Over 77.3 million American citizens voted for Donald Trump, and I think we are all getting what we voted for. Thank God and thank you Mr. President.
